Bethlehem Township - Active Transportation Plan

Survey Deadline: March 23, 2023

Tell us about walking and biking in Bethlehem Township! The Township is developing an active transportation plan to expand connections for walking, biking, and rolling. The plan will identify potential new sidewalks, trails, on-road biking facilities, and other bicycle and pedestrian improvements. The plan will identify ways to safely connect residential areas, schools, parks, trails, shopping centers, institutions, and other key destinations in and beyond the Township. The results of this survey will be used to identify key issues and prioritize potential connections.

If you would like to share a concern or idea about walking or biking at a specific location in the Township, add a comment to the online map for the project.
